About the School
The Oxford School on Neutron Scattering is intended for scientists and engineers who are new to the field of neutron scattering. Lectures and tutorials covering the theory and practice of neutron diffraction and spectroscopy are given by international experts. Students will gain a comprehensive grounding in modern techniques and applications at both continuous and pulsed neutron sources and have the opportunity to hear about the latest research being carried out with the technique.
Programme
The 2015 school programme consists of lectures, tutorials and problem classes taking place each weekday with occasional evening lectures. In addition, students make short presentations to their tutorial groups about their current research projects, and go through a neutron beam-time proposal writing exercise.
There will also be a visit to the nearby ISIS Neutron and Muon Source.
Topics covered during the school include:
Neutron sources
Neutron instrumentation
Neutron scattering theory
Diffraction
Spectroscopy
Small angle scattering
Reflectometry
Spin-Echo
Engineering
